Abstract
The increasing bacterial drug resistance has put antimicrobial peptides (AMPs) at the front as promising compounds to fight microbial infections and contaminations. This mini-review, inspired by a spate of recent studies of AMPs on structure, properties, production, modification and mechanisms, focuses on the general direction and challenges facing on this promising antimicrobial agent.
